This tutorial explains step by step how to install the downloaded version of Pinnacle Studio version 16 in your computer. If you are installing from the DVD of a box version, the process is quite similar except that you do not have to download anything, either at the beginning, or during installation. Everything is available in the DVD.

Double-click the PinnacleStudio16_Setup_77329.exe file that you downloaded and installation of Pinnacle Studio 16 will begin. Files are uncompressed on your PC. WARNING, the location of the installer is memorized during the installation, and sometimes the software might require this path, therefore do not move the installer after installation. You have been warned, choose a correct location for your installer from the very beginning.

Choose the installation language and click OK.

Studio prepares your system for installation.

Fill in all fields of the registration form and click Activate and register now.

Registration entitles you to 50 GB of free storage at Box.com.

Two types of installations are available to you.

Standard installation where everything that your version of Studio entitles you is installed.

Custom installation where you can select what you want to be installed depending on the version of Studio you own. If you select a part, only that part will be downloaded and installed. You will have the option to raise another installation of these non-selected elements later.

When downloading the PinnacleStudio16_Setup_77329.exe after your purchase, only the Pinnacle Studio 16 application has been downloaded. You will now have to download everything that you selected depending on the installation type selected above.

Studio will use the download manager Pando Media Booster to perform this task.

The download starts. It may be long. You've been warned !

I am Pinnacle Studio 15 ultimate collection user. Is Pinnacle 16 an update of Pinnacle 15 or AVID Studio (as some people are saying on the internet)? Do I have to uninstall Pinnacle 15 or can version 16 and 15 co-exist?

Studio 15 is the latest software from the older generation. Avid Studio software is the first of the new generation. These two programs are very different in their design and functionality made ​​available to the user. Studio 16 is an improvement of Avid Studio. Studio 16 is, therefore, entirely different from Studio 15.

You can keep Studio 15 and Studio 16 in parallel on the same computer, but you cannot run two programs simultaneously. Regards,

I have installed Studio 16 ultimate. And it seems to be much better than studio 15. Guess, will need a little longer learnign curve to get used to new interface.

But you guys at declic-video-fx.com are doing great work. Thank you so much for the resources here. I must be one of the very few Pinnacle users in India. I am so glad to have found a community online for the tools that I use. Keep up the good work.

I installed Pinnacle Studio 16 Plus and have a problem with my videos. The problem is that I cannot see the video that i had import from my hard drive, but the audio works fine. Also, videos like transitions and special fx doesnt play either. What should I do?

Sorry for answering so late (I moved house and I had few problems). I love your website as well. And believe me or not, your country is the THIRD one in the statistics of our website. It means that INDIA is in the TOP 3 of the country visiting our website... So, you are not alone in India, there are probably thousands of other users, maybe you have a forum somewhere in your country ???

I installed studio 16 plus and it works although during the downloadable content section it will say unable to download. I turned off Norton and firewall and still extra free content will not download?

I tried re-installing studio 16 on a new machine. But, the installation cannot proceed now to download additional components as Pando Media Booster is not available anymore as the parent company Pando has shut its business and the link for it will not work anymore.

Anyone installing studio 16 will need the entire DVD ISO file which has all the components.

Today it is impossible to download and reinstall Studio 16 because the app. Pando Media Booster required to do it is not available anymore.

I´ve asked for welp to Corel Suport. I received today the following unbelievable answer: « « Unfortunatelly we don´t have any solution unless the updating of Studio buying the last version available in http://www.pinnaclesys.com/PublicSite/us/Products/studio/»
